What do you mean that's not what happened? That's exactly what happened! They didn't come here to peacefully co-exist and share the resources.

Just because it was in the past, doesn't mean that it wasn't unjust. And I see very little done to repair those injustices, so perhaps that's why people "cling" to it.

There's a lot that can be done. We can return a lot of ancestral lands or make reparations. We can respect the lands that are sacred to Native Americans. We can make reparations to the enslaved. We can stop lying in history books. Instead there is resistance to that.

If the wealth accumulated from 400 years of free labor still exists & is being enjoyed by the descendants of the enslavers, then that also means that reparations can be made to redistribute that wealth to compensate for stolen labor.

The value of the land that was stolen from Native Americans still exists. The descendants of those who stole the land inherited the benefits of the theft, so it also follows that the descendants of the ones from whom the land was stolen are still being deprived of the benefits.
